Good rant. I'm all for making money any way you can (legally) but when you actually screw employees, investors, and managment, then it's another ballgame. Then again, we live in a country of Greed and your Martha example proves it.
P.S - I know it's 6 yrs old now but you should look into the insider trading spikes before 9-11. Apparently the put activity for American Airtlines and United few days before 9-11 was insane.
